Death for a Slap.

"My God, Polly is in the we'll. Some
one run for help quick Oh! my dar-
ling, my child" exclaimed lady re-
siding ON the CORTLAND avenue extern
sion yesterday morning, as she sprang
from the rear yeranda toward O. well in
the yard.
In second the lady was standing be-
side the well peering down the deep
round hole toward the water. The well
was deep and dark, and for second
nothing could be seen, but as soon as
her eyes became accustomed to the
| darkness she discovered the object of
her affection hobbing up and down the
water
"There she is she exclaimed. Let
the bucket down quick. Quick, be
quick.
Then, as the bucket went down, she
leaned far over the well, calling out:
There. my child, get in the bucket
and hold on tight. They will draw you
up"
The bucket went down and again the
lady stopped over and repeated her di-
rection. In second an answer came
back from the well. 1t was:
''NO, | won't get in the bucket.
You whipped me and I am going to
drown"
Almost beside herself with grief the
lady called again and again for help.
Finally, a man passing came in, and
going down in the we'll found the dead
body, and bringing it ont, handed it to
the lady. She grabbed it eagerly, and
pressing it to her lips between her sobs,
said:
Ny child is dead. Oh, what shall l
do? Mother did scold and slap her, but
she is sorry. Is it dead z"
For the past two or three days Polly
had been sulky aud in n bad humor.
The lady had tried hard to change its
temper, but she could not. Early yes
terday morning she was very cranky
and received a slight tap on the jaw.
The lick was not hard, but it wounded
Polly's feelings. Looking the lady in
the face she said:
"You have slapped Polly, but you
won't do it any more. She is going to
kill herself"
In a second she was flying toward the
well. At the edge she hcsitated a min
ute, and then leaping over the box went
down to n watery grave.
Polly was a parrot and at the time of
her death was the property Of the grand
daughter of the lady who first owned
her. She was magnificent talker, and
had been in the family over sixty
years. atlanta Constitution.

A man registered at a seaside hotel.

argued with him in regard to terms. He

This seemed curious transaction from
a man who was SO eager to secure low

LAND OWNING farmers do not take
kindly to the pernicious doctrines of
Henry George. At a meeting in West
ern New York the other day, man in
the audience who was not entirely clear
in his mind as to the practical applica-
ton of the George theories, asked: 'Mr.
George, how would you tax poor man
who had put up shanty, and man
who had put up $780, Oo house on the
next LOTT" The reply was: II would tax
them the same. Why should the rich
man be fined for putting up hand
some house2' The answer was enough
to settle the business for Mr.. George in
that district. The poor, who happen to
be in the overwhelming majority in this
as in all other countries, always enter
tain the idea that the rich are favored
and they are oppressed in the matter of
taxation, and they have no use for a
man, be he politician or preacher, who
would increase their taxes and reduce
those of the wealthy.
